    kernel - IPI subset of cpus on token de-collision.
    
    * Implement sysctl lwkt.token_ipi_dispatch and set the default value
      to 4, meaning when a token is released up to 4 conflicting cpus
      will be IPId to wake them up.
    
    * Saves 20-40W under load on the 48-core monster (out of ~450W
      or so).
